Hi,guys.
I have my Mi 5s three months ago. I face this f-word problem: when I play demanding graphic games,it automatically decreases the CPU,GPU's clock results in the games lag as hell. I used CPU-Z to check,before playing the GPU has 624mhz,when you enter a game,it has 401mhz,sometime 133mhz Lol. Also the CPU.
Anyone has the same problem? How to solve it?
You know,have a powerful device but can't play games it's annoying as f.

Maybe it's just overheating.
What is the temperature (check in Security->Battery).
I dont even start the game,how the hell is it overheating? I checked,its about 33-35°C.
Im using Global Stable 8.0.30 Official Rom. And btw,how to up new rom when you cant erase all the system files? Mi5s doesnt support Sdcard,so how can I up new rom?(my phone is already unlock and flashed TWRP).

Remove / Cut thermal config

*Sorry for bad english

If your phone is rooted, you can cut/remove your thermal config in this path
/etc/thermal-engine-8996.conf

Becareful, it will raise your cpu heat upto 64°C
But your cpu freq will be stable @2,1 Ghz and Gpu @624 Mhz

There is no need for SD to move files to the phone.
Just use MTP over USB or the FTP server built into MIUI's File Explorer over WiFi (File Explorer->Categories->FTP).

Can I flash via TWRP instead?
I've read many threads that instructed to flash via TWRP,but as I read "wipe" part,I'm always confusing.

You do not have to wipe internal storage. Selecting wipe /data will not wipe /data/media (internal storage), so you can still store your ROM file in internal storage and flash it in TWRP after wiping /data, /cache and /system, which is the usual wiping procedure anyway. Or you could choose to ADB sideload it from your PC, but you still require TWRP.

So all I need to do is put file rom,backup,.etc.. To /sdcard then wwipe cache,system,davik cache to flash things?
Are you SURE about it?

Yes, the ROM file and backup will stay in /sdcard. Then you can proceed to wipe system, cache, dalvik and data in TWRP -> Wipe -> Advanced Wipe. Just make sure not to select internal storage for wiping. And I'm sure because I've flashed several ROMs without incident.
